Investigation of Body Awareness and Affecting Factors in Patients with Bariatric Surgery.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundMajor weight loss after bariatric surgery (BS) makes the body sensitive to the environment. The factors associated with body awareness are unknown in patients with BS. In this study, we aimed to investigate the body awareness and the affecting factors in patients with BS.
methodsOur study included 81 patients who had BS at least 6 months ago and 40 people of the same age and gender who had not. Participants' body awareness was evaluated with the Body Awareness Questionnaire, body compositions with bioelectric impedance device, joint position sensation (JPS) with photography method, physical activity level with International Physical Activity Questionnaire, quality of life with the Short Form-36, depression status with the Beck Depression Inventory, and cognition with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale. Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests were used for the comparison of the groups, and Spearman correlation analysis was used for in-group correlation analysis.
resultsBody awareness was found to be higher in patients with BS compared to the control group (p = 0.002). Body awareness had a positive correlation with cognition (r = 0.277, p = 0.012), quality of life sub-scales (r = 0.245-0.374, p < 0.05), the amount of change in total body weight (r = 0.241, p = 0.027), and body mass index (BMI) (r = 0.269, p = 0.032); negative correlation with depression (r = - 0.409, p = 0.016) and deviation in the JPS (r = - 0.223, p = 0.046).
conclusionBody awareness of patients with BS was found to be high after surgery. Body awareness in patients with BS is associated with the amount of weight loss and BMI, depression, cognition, JPS, and health-related quality of life.
